Lo que vi y porque menti (Spanish Edition) - Softcover

When Evie's father returned home from World War II, the family fell back into its normal life pretty quickly. But Joe Spooner brought more back with him than just good war stories. When movie-star handsome Peter Coleridge, a young ex-GI who served in Joe's company in postwar Austria, shows up, Evie is suddenly caught in a complicated web of lies that she only slowly recognizes. She finds herself falling for Peter, ignoring the secrets that surround him . . . until a tragedy occurs that shatters her family and breaks her life in two. As she begins to realize that almost everything she believed to be a truth was really a lie, Evie must get to the heart of the deceptions and choose between her loyalty to her parents and her feelings for the man she loves. Someone will have to be betrayed. The question is . . . who? 0973698278\\800 cats leaping from 240 pages!

You’ll enjoy the antics of Louis Wain’s cats, as well as the fascinating lifestory of this crazy artistic genius who created a cat style, a cat society, a whole cat world that bedazzled the English and thrilled the Americans before many of us were born and whose work continues to appeal to cat lovers and be sought by collectors until this day.

Although this book is the result of 22 years of the author’s personal research she has NOT created a dull biography with dreary footnotes. No! No! Never! She has written this story like a novel with dialogue and characters so vividly depicted you’ll be right there with Louis Wain whether he is in London with his Fleet Street drinking chums, or in New York’s Chelsea Hotel being patted on the back for outshining the exalted American artist, Charles Dana Gibson and his glamorous Gibson Girls.

Because Louis Wain faithfully reproduced the scenery, clothing, and activities of people he saw, you cannot fail to painlessly absorb the then-current historical happenings in London, New York and Chicago. You’ll also share his professional successes and disappointments, his personal joys and sorrows, so that sometimes you’ll laugh, sometimes cry, but you’ll never forget Louis Wain.
